Saturday's wedding had a distinctly international flavour with the bride hailing originally from the USA, with a huge contingent of friends and family making the trip 'across the pond' to Dunfermline.
Amid the usual pre-wedding stress and chaos Maureen looked absolutely stunning:
Both bridesmaids were from the USA, and looked fabulous in very unusual dark blue outfits. This is Melissa:
By the time we got over to the church in Portobello the weather had improved radically, and it was a beautiful (if windy) sunny day. Maureen's father Frank, from Virginia, looked the part despite it being his first time in a kilt:
Maureen carried one of the most colourful bouquets I have ever seen:
Check out the sky ..... a decent day in Scotland for a change!
After the wedding we went to Calton Hill to get some Edinburgh-flavoured shots:
It can be very difficult to get clear views over the city, fortunately the weather was perfect. It was blowing a gale so we didn't stay too long, but this is my shot of the wedding:
From Calton Hill it was a short drive to the reception venue at the Royal College of Physicians in Queen Street, Edinburgh. This is another of the buildings in Edinburgh where the outside, whilst impressive by itself, hides an absolutely magnificent interior. A stunning place to finish a great day.
